Patagonia Houdini Jacket

Price:Ranges from $79-$120

Pros: Light, Compact Design, Breathable

Cons: Cost, No Side Pockets

Overall:This piece of gear needs to be part of your trail running attire. The Patagonia Houdini is one of our favorite windbreakers. It is the lightest we tested and packs the smallest. It is our most used layer in our quiver because it is just so versatile. What other jacket can protect you from mosquitoes on a hot day, protect you from sun at the beach, block the wind on a bike ride, and keep you dry in a light rain?
